Scholarships

The Ma & Morley Scholarship Program application process is designed so that a diversity of students have a fair opportunity to access this life changing experience.

There are a total of 20 scholarships available for new students and 10 Lǐng Jūn immersion experiences available for continuing students per year under the Ma & Morley Scholarship Program.

All successful Scholars are expected to adhere to the Scholar Charter. The Scholar Charter aims to provide clarity and guidance on Scholars' journey to becoming the future leader they aspire to be. It also provides a framework for conduct and expectations that aims to meet both the needs and the interests of the Program and the University of Newcastle more broadly.

New students

These scholarships are offered to students who will begin their undergraduate degree in 2024. Half of the scholarships in each category will be allocated to students who have completed a University of Newcastle Pathway Program such as Yapug or Open Foundation (or are set to complete in 2023).

* Due to the impacts of COVID-19 the 2024 China global immersion is pending. More details will be made available at a later date.

Continuing students

The Lǐng Jūn scholarships are for students who have commenced their degree and have 160 units or more left to complete at the beginning of Semester 1, 2024. Students must also have completed the first year (80 units) of their degree by the end of Semester 2, 2023.
